Gideon Percy Scherer
SCHERER, GIDEON (1811–1861). Gideon
Scherer, Lutheran minister and founder of Colorado College, was born near Rural
Retreat, Wythe County, Virginia, the son of Jacob and Elizabeth (Spoon)
Scherer, on December 2, 1811. He studied in a country school and probably received
further formal training, for he was a practicing minister when, about 1852, he
and his wife decided to come to Texas to minister to German Lutheran
immigrants. The Scherers made their way by the Kanawha, Ohio, and Mississippi
rivers to New Orleans, then to Galveston, and finally to Columbus, where
Scherer organized a church. He served as trustee for the congregation in the
acquisition of a town lot and the construction of a church building, which was
completed by 1854. In 1857 he and his brother, John Jacob Scherer, founded
Colorado College in Columbus. Jacob Scherer, their father, who was also a
minister and had come to Columbus in 1854 at the age of sixty-nine, taught in
the college until his death. Gideon had three sons and two daughters. His wife
died before 1860. In 1858 ill health compelled him to resign his ministry; he
died in Columbus on June 2, 1861.

COLORADO COLLEGE. Colorado College, in
Columbus, was said to be the first Lutheran College in Texas. It was founded in
1857 by John Jacob and Gideon Schererqqv and their father, Jacob. J. J. Scherer
was professor of ancient languages and president of the school. The board of
trustees consisted of nine members, the majority of whom had to be members of
the Evangelical Lutheran Church. Enrollment reached as high as 300. There were
negotiations in 1868 to sell the three-story building to the First Evangelical
Lutheran Synod of Texas. The IOOF Lodge purchased the school in 1871. The
College was last reported functioning in 1886.
